Assumptions Leave Us with Confusions, Yet Those Estimations Hold Our Intermissions
How Assumptions Control Our Lives
Journey to Journal: Assumption are the Accommodations to Our Own Recommendations
Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won’t come in — Isaac Asimov
We use our own estimations to fill in gaps that link one proposition to another conclusion, but the issue is that we leave out the consideration for the opposition.
Our arguments are only as strong as how well we understand all the parties, because we should argue out of truth, not bias.
It’s when we understand better that we can pass a message that helps everyone suffer with ease. Because things never get easier, but your experience makes things better.
We’re never going to have the full context, even if that pertains to our own curtains, and so we have to make things up as we go. We have to use our lens as scope for what makes sense.
But when we’re taking in so much, our intention is always going to be liable to our speculation. We’re always under the impression that our judgement is infallible while we’re a victim to our own filtered observation.
We look at we want, and sometimes we’ll remove what is there just to push our narrative. Our assumptions are the stories we tell ourselves as false notions of logic under the presuppositions of what was originally out of position.
Instead of considering all out options, we chose one which empowers our projection. Hence, we’re fools to our own incantations.
Remember, just because you thought it, doesn’t mean you have to believe it.
Just because you saw it, doesn’t mean it’s a part of your perception.
